No, I don't believe reinstalling the O/S is likely to fix it.

Obvious thoughts are:-

1. BIOS code fault, is there a manufacturer's BIOS update available.
2. Something wrong with BIOS battery, perhaps about to fail.
3. It's getting system time from a stuck time server (does it still happen if you unplug network cable?)
As you say, very strange.

TRM(4)							   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						    TRM(4)

NAME

     trm -- Tekram TRM-S1040 ASIC based PCI SCSI host adapter driver

SYNOPSIS

     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:

	   device scbus
	   device trm

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

	   trm_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

     The trm driver supports PCI SCSI host adapters based on the Tekram TRM-S1040 SCSI ASIC.

HARDWARE

     SCSI controllers supported by the trm driver include:

     o	 Tekram DC-315 PCI Ultra SCSI adapter without BIOS and internal SCSI connector
     o	 Tekram DC-315U PCI Ultra SCSI adapter without BIOS
     o	 Tekram DC-395F PCI Ultra-Wide SCSI adapter with flash BIOS and 68-pin external SCSI connector
     o	 Tekram DC-395U PCI Ultra SCSI adapter with flash BIOS
     o	 Tekram DC-395UW PCI Ultra-Wide SCSI adapter with flash BIOS
     o	 Tekram DC-395U2W PCI Ultra2-Wide SCSI adapter with flash BIOS

     For the Tekram DC-310/U and DC-390F/U/UW/U2B/U2W/U3W PCI SCSI host adapters, use the sym(4) driver.
